Fremantle Dockers vs Brisbane Lions Preview
Top eight is almost out of the question for the Dockers, but they should relish another chance at playing finals spoiler – as they did last week against the Cats in Geelong.
Not for the first time, Freo pulled off a remarkable upset at GMHBA Stadium, Justin Longmuir’s men feasting on the Cats’ inaccuracy in front of goal whilst forcing a handful of turnovers at key stages in the game.
Up next, a Lions side that has everything to prove with a month of footy remaining.
Brisbane suffered its own upset in last week’s Q-Clash against the Suns, question marks still surrounding the Lions’ leadership and their inability to stand up when their backs are against the wall.
In a lot of ways, a trip to Perth can do wonders for a team searching for confidence, but it’s becoming increasingly difficult to know which Lions team will show up week to week.
Defensively, Freo was much-improved last week against the Cats, but their previous four losses saw them give up an average of 104 points to the likes of Sydney, Collingwood, Carlton, and the Dogs.
Recent struggles aside, the Lions’ forward line is still one of the best in the competition, not to mention the fact Brisbane put 115 points on Fremantle when they met back in April.
